Letter of Recommendation Date: March 13, 2020 From: Ford & Associates, Inc. (“Ford & Associates”) To: The School Board of Bay County, Florida (the “Board”) Attn: Mr. Jim Loyed, Chief Financial Officer Re: Responses to the Board’s RFP for Underwriting Services
Background. Ford & Associates, as municipal advisor to the Board, worked with District staff to prepare a Request for Proposals for Underwriting Services in order to select one or more qualified financial institutions to serve the District in issuing certificates of participation to finance the construction of a new educational facility within the District. Firms were asked to provide information about their firm’s personnel, profile, and capabilities; experience; past analytical and financial support for the District; and any structural recommendations they might have for the District based on its existing debt profile and current market conditions. At the request of District staff, the RFP was distributed to 17 financial institutions by Ford & Associates on February 25th and responses were received on March 10th.
Responses. The District received responses from the following six firms (alphabetical):
BofA Securities, Inc. Raymond James & Associates, Inc.
Jefferies LLC RBC Capital Markets, LLC
PNC Capital Markets LLC UBS Financial Services Inc.
Recommendations. Ford & Associates reviewed each firm’s response with a focus on factors that were of notable importance to District staff. Past financial support for the District in the form of direct lending was considered particularly important and separated two firms from the remainder. We discussed each firm’s response with District staff and walked through our perception of each firm’s relative strengths and weaknesses.
Based on the expected size and structure of the transaction, as well as current market conditions, Ford & Associates recommends that the District engage two firms to serve as a syndicate for the District’s proposed financing. Based on the demonstrated merits and qualifications of the firms responding, we
March 24, 2020 25
recommend that Bay District Schools engage Raymond James & Associates, Inc. as its Senior Managing Underwriter and PNC Capital Markets LLC as a Co-Senior Managing Underwriter.
If you have any questions about the proposed transaction or Ford & Associates’ recommendation, please contact Ford & Associates, Inc. at (813) 874-6621.
Sincerely,
Jerry W. Ford William S. Reed Jonathan W. Ford President Vice President Vice President
